Hi there! I'm new to this and have never posted on any forums before so... have mercy!
I've never flown or built an fpv quad or any rc things before. I'm dying to do it though! And determined to do so.
I'm building an fpv race quad, for the first time, following this guide:
I'm using the "upgraded parts" as listed in the video description.
This is the build vid that goes in to detail on piecing the parts together:
NOW FOR MY ACTUAL ISSUE:
My radio inputs don't seem to be reaching the flight controller or the ESC. When I connect the battery I get the initial na na na ... naaa naaa and it won't arm. The radio is paired successfully with the receiver it shipped with. In Cleanflight the radio inputs aren't showing up in the Receiver tab but the motors do work using the Motor's tab. I configured everything in Cleanflight the same way it is in the vid, though the guy in the vid used Betaflight. I even checked the manuals for my parts to make sure the settings were right and I'm pretty sure they are. My receiver is soldered to the flight controller via the UART 3 port. I tested it on UART 2 and it didn't work there either (yes i had serial Rx turned on for UART 2 when I did this). The FC is connected to the ESC's motor solder spot things in the correct order (like in the vid).
I'm really stumped and could use some help. This issue is making me loose interest in finishing the build... Any suggestions are very much appreciated!!!
Thank you!!!!!!!
